He described meetings with Castro and noted shifts in U S Cuban relations as Washington weighs steps to reestablish ties. The seven include three alleged CIA agents and four hijackers serving long prison terms. The State Department called Castro’s move to allow families to depart Cuba a welcome development as talks proceed.
